Yield Wine Bar San Francisco

This is no ordinary wine bar. Located in Dogpatch, it pours only biodynamic, organic, and sustainable wines. Nibble on rosemary-toasted almonds, a cheese plate, or fresh-made flatbreads if you get hungry.

Amelie San Francisco

One step inside this Polk Street wine lounge and you’ll be transported into the movie of the same name. Sip on affordable vino from around the world (with a good amount from France, of course) and munch on snacks like cheese ravioli and flatbreads.

The Alembic San Francisco

Chef Eddie Blyden uses locally grown ingredients in mouthwatering small plates, like cassoulet of wine forest mushrooms and autumn squash. Small-batch, artisan spirits help take the edge off.

Terzo San Francisco

This cozy Cow Hollow spot from the same peeps behind Rose’s Cafe offers delish pan-Mediterranean small plates (think grilled halibut with fava beans) and a stellar wine list.
